VRTF Meeting

(We've had several video meetings in the past half year over Zoom. This one will be in person. A great time to join and get to know us!)

Provisional agenda

Quick review of past year’s legislation
Especially AB 2125, Risk limiting audits, awaiting signature by governor
Funding for SF open source
Clean Money had a very good year

Grant funding
We have made several short videos, but we have still have over $6K available. There are several options

1. Move the risk limiting audit film forward with Chris. So far, nothing has happened
2. Make a video supporting John Brakey’s ballot images work
3. Hire a student to conduct some county-by-county research
   a. What equipment are they using, exactly?
   b. Who handles their VbM operations? Is it a private company?
   c. Are they posting detailed precinct reports on the Internet, as required by AB 813?
   d. …
4. Decide to run another conference next year, and use some of the funding for that???

Organizing election observation in Nov?
Especially in light of changes in audit rules.

Look forward to what legislation we might try to introduce for 2019?

Other ??????
